[7.0] "Daiki Nagai joined Takagi, Tsuji, and Hiromu after the match, fulfilling what he had announced in the backstage promo. Hiromu Takahashi was, as usual, very entertaining. You can sense that he is eagerly awaiting the return of LIJ. The duel between Zack Sabre Jr. and Shingo Takagi was particularly noteworthy. Their history and technical style made their exchanges intense and exciting. If this kind of confrontation happens again during the G1 Climax, there is no doubt that this match will be among the best of the tournament. Finally, Yota Tsuji continues to progress and has enriched his arsenal by incorporating a new move inspired by Ultimo Guerrero (whom he faced a few days earlier), an interesting nod that shows his evolution and his desire to add depth to his style. All in all, this Six Man Tag Team match was a good mix of action, storytelling, and individual progression, with exciting promises for the future, particularly with regard to the G1 Climax and the "return" of LIJ. Rating: ***3/4"
[6.0] "Shingo and Zack are in the ring together so it just blows out any other match on the card so far. Not a Classic but it was relatively fine. **3/4"
[6.0] "Really fun undercard bout here, the epitome of what a match like this should be really. The crowd got really involved and hot for the action and it got me really intrigued as to where Takahashi, Tsuji and Shingo will end up. Oiwa and Tsuji facing off was a treat and led to a really interesting exchange. Tsuji got the win over Hartley Jackon with a Gene Blast, and this was simple and basic fun, nothing to seek out necessarily but a very enjoyable watch."
[7.0] "Much more fun than the opener, with lots of energy and better chemistry. Worked great as a G1 warmup and for some intrigue on the Unaffiliated stable."
